Episode Synopsis

"For here is where we get back to the meaningful meal conversation. Of course they have food - food and Jesus just naturally go together - whether he is feeding 5 or 5,000, bread and fish and wine are all together consistently found in Jesus stories. And they hand him a piece of boiled fish - fish jerky, if you will, and he eats it in their presence. This makes me laugh because it’s like turning the solemnity of the Lord’s Supper into a post-Resurrection buffet at the Golden Corral, only Jesus is the only one eating. Everybody else is too scared, too awed, too overwhelmed to eat. And there’s Jesus, gnawing on his boiled fish while they scratch their heads in disbelief."
